And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” And God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food. And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so.

This imperative from the Lord was not invalidated when man sinned, it just became impossible to do. Jesus repeats the command in saying:

Matthew 6:33
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
